That way, houses are never forced to invite or bid any pnm they don't want, but they have an incentive to re-invite pnms who might have slipped through the cracks due to shyness, lack of connections, whatever.
The last time I suggested this, someone pointed out that sneaky pnms might collude with their #1 house and deliberately be rude at every house in order to be cut, with the understanding that #1 would invite them back as an "extra." I can see that as a risk in small systems, but would it really happen at a place like UT? Wouldn't actives in the other sororities talk, realize what was going on, and report it?

The only problem I see with this is the same problem I was told exist with a sophomore/jr quota. A lot of time these women are still active in recruitment with smaller houses. If there were a separate quota it would hurt the smaller houses and help the larger houses. I had heard our campus was going to do a separate quota, but it didn't end up happening for that reason. I can tell you a lot of sophomores were released because most folks already had a large sophomore class and need the freshman for housing and membership.
